R.N. Dey And Others vs Bhagyabati Pramanik & Others

The Supreme Court addressed the appeals against the Calcutta High Court's order regarding compensation under the Land Acquisition Act. The Court held that the claimants had no right, title, or interest in the land, thus rendering the compensation awarded to them a nullity. The Court emphasized that the State's prior vesting of the land under the Estates Acquisition Act, 1953 precluded the claimants from receiving compensation, and the High Court's interim orders were not binding in light of this fact.
